i want to know if this could be connected to a dvd player and used for outside entertainment, if I bought a screen?

I imagine it could but I have never tried. The connection should be about the same as a laptop

Yes it can. I do it all the time. You can use it with anything that has either an hdmi hookup, component hookup (red, green, and blue), or standard video (yellow, red, and white). The only thing it doesn't have a hookup for is the old screw-on coaxial that you would see on a really old vcr or nintendo. My only suggestion is that you hook it up to speakers or a stereo because the internal speakers are really quiet. Also, being a projector you would obviously have to use it at night for optimum visual quality. I don't even use a screen but my garage door is already white.

Yes, it can. You must ensure you have all of the necessary cabling to do so. HDMI and A/V RCA cables for external speakers. The speaker on the unit is not that great.

After Dark. It is not that great when there is other light like a classroom or conference room. However, if it is dark outside, it should be fine. Get some external speakers too. I use it as my TV at home, connected directly to cable with my Sony speakers.

Yes but I wouldn't recommend. It started messing up on me after a week and two to three weeks later it wouldn't work at all. I returned it and replaced with the VVME - V07. Only $12 more, way better picture quality ( very nice picture when I was just projecting on a wall in my bedroom) , haven't had a single issue with it, its also LED, and has more HDMI inputs. Only down side is its a bit larger-normal projector size.

Dunskis: the answer to your question is yes! This projector has an hdmi port and Pb/Cb connection. Most modern DVD players have both or either of these connections to match. You will want to purchase a separate audio system, though! The built in speaker in the projector is worthless, especially for outdoors. Keep in mind this project is not weather proof, though, so it will need to be stored inside. Good luck! -stefan

You will not be able to use the notebook as a display(TV) connecting and attempting to play from a dvd player, although they should physically connect.

Not sure...there was nothing in the packaging that indicated it could be used outside. You might want to ask someone at radio shack or best buy off their opinion.

No.. it does not have a DVD player, you'd have to buy an external USB DVD player.

I do not think you can. I do not know any DVD player that gives you that option. You would need to purchase a Chrome cast.

I have my computer, a dvd player and surround system hooked to it. You can direct connect a dvd player with an HDMI cable.

Yes as long as it's connected to a PC running the proper DVD player software. This is not a stand alone DVD player.

I would say no, except the screen is used for projecting movies or television. Without a projector what will you project that requires a screen?

It should work well outside with a movie if it's not a quite movie or your not in a loud area, and it's fairly close to you. I actually used mine outside this past weekend (it was music from and iphone), it sounded great. I even used it near a airport and it still sounded pretty good. I've also found the louder the device it's connected to the louder it will be.If you have the option try dual speakers set might be even better (I have yet to try this though but it couldn't hurt)

No, you can run a hdmi from it to a TV and play movies on the TV but it does not server as a monitor for external devices. It is however a great little play, use it alot, suggest getting an additional usb power pack, extends the play time. www.newtrent.com sells some good ones, sometime great sales

Yes you should be able to hook up your DVD player to this projector. The image size can range between 20-80 inches, I found the image size to be on the smaller side of the range.

Yes you can ... You can also use it with hdmi compatible game systems and DVD players etc.

You should be able to if the tv has output RCA jacks coming from the tv or dvd player. I believe most still do.

It can be connected if the tv has composite audio outputs. Some older ones however, only have inputs in which case you can't. If that is your situation though, you can always connect the video (yellow) output from the dvd player to the video input of the tv while the audio outputs (red and white) go to to the audio receiver.

It could be used to display images from cameras outside, but the monitor won't last if you place it outside.

You can use the DVD player anywhere... There is an electrical plug, a car plug, it also takes batteries. with AV plugs you can plug it into aTV for a bigger picture. I have a TV that I does not have a DVD connected to it.

I do not think it will connect to other players. But, I'm not an expert on technology. I believe you can connect outside speakers, though. Again, this is only my best guess. I'm not an expert on this equipment.
